Ah Ha! Big Round Number...makes sense. Yes, that really is a picture of me. I purchased AIMS a few weeks ago and started trading it live this week. So far so good...especially today! :ymparty:

Thanks!

Third trade: -10.3. If anyone's got any feedback on what went wrong here, I'd love to hear it. I can see I've entered after a sizeable move up on the M5...

Hi Bobby

I'm new to this and no expert but looking at your entry on this it looks like the candle with a dot is outside the box, my understanding is that when this happens its best to wait for a new AIMS level to form. Also the alligator didnt look to be asleep or in setup 2 from what I can see.

congratulations on your recent trades and please keep posting, i find it helpful and inspiring to see someone making a success.

Cheers
Mike

Second trade, +16.2. Having seen it approach the day's low (red dotted line) and drift back upwards, I resolved to take profit at the same level if possible, unless it blasted through:

Hi Bobby

I took both these trades, closed first one as soon as I got in as I realised the aims box was too big for my rules, hence didnt post it on my journal. Got stopped at b/e on the second as it reversed just after triggering, your trade management technique obviously kept you in so well done.

Cheers

Mike
